As the original footage was done on film, the time difference between the top and bottom of a single frame is zero, unlike a "rolling shutter" progressively scanned sensor. The framerate is also much lower than the 60fps phone camera used in the last example from the MIT video, which was only barely enough to get meaningful data out.

So unfortunately, we probably won't be using this to get much out of old traditionally archived footage - not because of resolution of the frame, but time resolution.
